Hi guys,

 

Sorry i need some help here.. today i started my bike and heard some 'ticking' sound generated near my version s carb area. Wonder whether is it normal or whether the shims are due for a change? Anyone could kindly help me with it? And was wondering what are the tell tale signs that the shims are due for a service? Kindly appreciate anyone's help. Thanks.

There are no "due" servicing for shims. When its worn, just have to be replaced. Occasionally, this sound comes around and is quite 'normal'. If it goes away after a few days, its okay but if its consistent and gets louder every now and then, that when it need to be replaced.

Just got a message from the Section Head of my school that my classmate, Albert, riding a Version S passed away during the weekends in a bike accident in JB. May he rest in peace.

 

No wonder there's no version S today when I reached school. Sigh.

 

my most sincere condolences.

Heh Xianbanz..that's not a "stimulator"..its a taser thingy and really NASTY SHOCK! Cannot lah..its illegal..anything swaye_swaye goes wrong I kenna go court for manslaughter I :faint:liao. Btw..I'm in the process of building 5 double (one for fan and one for headlamp) waterproof switches liao..believe you want one?..this one can lah.

 

Not power abuser..that's a 'toy'...EPS CCA (Cold Cranking Amphere (current)) you mean...yah, that's good for your bike electrical load performance. Since you got my grounding, it works well

hi ah pek.. i have been following this thread for quite a while already.

i got a version S a couple of mths back from a friend's shop. had no problems with the bike till yesterday. thought u might have some knowledge about it.

 

there is some stains appearing on the block area on the right side.... near the chrome 'top' and the rubber layer. dun tink its coolent as it would have dried up. could be engine oil or petrol?

 

is it showing signs that i need a top overhual or replacement of the 'rubber'?

 

there is this clicking sound too when i start my bike in the morning. my bike has been back firing a lot too since day one. it could have been because of the end can as it sounds real loud. probaly operated on before by previous owner.

 

and lastly i m very interested in trying out your 'premix formula' but maybe something needs to be done first to the above mentioned problems?

kindly advise.

 

could u pm the cost of changing to ur 'premix' and probaly oil filter and a set of plugs too. and also when u might be available to help me solve these problems. kopi-oh and lunch on me.

If you are certain that its eo sipping or leaking mildly out between the top cover and mid block, meaning the gasket may be 'defective'..you can try tightening the bolts on the cyclinder block head first. Have to do it equally and diagonal. It coould be that the gasket is not seating properly due to loose cyclinder head cover job done in the past.

 

Don't ever suggest or mention word like "overhaul" to a mototiam you do not know..they will jump on it and your head is on the chopping block. As for the ticking, it could be the shim..its quite normal unless the sound continues and does not go away and goes on for weeks..its time then to replace the faulty shim/shims only.

 

K..will pm u.

Have to indicate and identify the following:

 

1) What equipment or accessories the box switches be link to.

 

2) Their current rating as wire type are of importance.

 

3) Do the individual require seperated fuses?

 

4) How big is the box at max in size and EXACTLY where and how you want it mounted.

 

5) Make sure you have enough $s ..LOL!

Anything oso can as long as the tyre wall don't rub or touch your swing arm. Expect higher fc.
